For the Eldar of Fodlan's Ark, they really don't have much experience in dealing with ambush.

Because of the existence of the webway system left by the ancient saints and the advanced psychic technology left by the ancient Eldar empire, the space speed of the human empire and various other alien forces is as slow as a turtle crawling and very clumsy in the eyes of the Eldar.

The Dark Eldar often rely on this mobility to hunt the human merchant fleets, or go to the imperial colonies to plunder the population, and bring a large number of humans back to the dark city of Comoros to be used as slave labor, or directly used for torture. for fun.

Only the living metal warships equipped with inertia-free engines mastered by the former overlords of the Necrons could surpass the elegant Eldar warships in terms of speed and maneuverability.

Therefore, when Star Sail 2 and Star Sail 3 received the distress signal from No. 1, the few logistics Eldar who stayed behind the battleship felt somewhat unbelievable surprise.

The two frigates rushed to the core of the galaxy. After getting away from the interference of the nebula, the frigates' detection equipment captured two signal sources:

A point of light was flying through the space with a high-speed maneuver that the Eldar were familiar with, as if it was dodging something - it was StarSail 1, which sent out a distress signal.

The other signal source is running relatively stably in a close orbit of the star, and seems to be a space base close to an observation/warning outpost.

Logically speaking, this huge facility located in the core of the galaxy should have been completely paralyzed for a long time. However, as Star Sail 1 approached the core of the galaxy, this offensive move seemed to trigger some kind of alert mechanism, and the weapon system of the outpost Star Sail 1 is firmly locked on, and the long-range strike turret on it is constantly adjusting its direction, frequently firing deadly rays at Star Sail 1.

However, Star Sail 1 just relied on its own maneuverability to dodge the outpost's attack and did not fight back.

Star Sail 2 and 3 immediately knew the reason, and also understood the reason why Star Sail 1 sent a distress signal to them:

They are almost certain that this outpost is an ancient facility left behind by the ancient civilization that created the "key" to the "Pure Land". The reason why Star Sail One did not counterattack the attack on the outpost is because Because the battleship crew also wants to conduct further in-depth investigation of this outpost, they may be able to find some information about the "key".

Therefore, Star Sail One also called over the remaining two frigates of the advance reconnaissance team.

"You arrived in time. The attack frequency when the outpost was just launched was very intensive. Even when Star Sail 1 was at full speed, it was almost hit several times."

Star Sail 1 sent a message to its companions: "But after a long period of dormancy, the energy reserves in this facility should be close to depletion, and its weapon launch frequency has been much slower than before. Cooperate with me, and let's make it work together." Completely paralyzed.”

"receive."

"receive."

StarSail 2 and 3 immediately joined the space dogfight.

The increase in the number of hostile targets immediately forced the outpost's weapon system to fire more intensively. Facing the elegant Eldar warships, the already energy-depleted outpost seemed overwhelmed.

Soon, the flickering light on the huge machine was completely extinguished, the weapon system sank down as if deflated, and the entire outpost was completely paralyzed. Only the body mass and solid structure were left to anchor itself, preventing it from being torn apart by the gravity of the star. Gotta fall apart.

"Success?"

"It should be. Let's be careful when approaching. This kind of equipment is usually equipped with a backup energy system."

Otherwise, there would be no need for StarSail 1 to shake people.

The three frigates turned off the holographic stealth field, turned on the shield system at full power, and cautiously approached the stalled outpost from three directions.

Facts have proved that Star Sail One's caution is necessary. When they approach a certain critical point, the weapon systems that have been dormant for a long time suddenly lift up like a flashback, shooting dense high-energy rays in three directions.

"really."

The well-prepared Eldar warriors nimbly dodged this last wave of attacks.

If only Star Sail 1 tried to get closer here, it might suffer some losses due to such a concentrated fire. Unfortunately, the Ranger captain piloting StarSail One had the foresight to call his companions to disperse the final salvo from three directions.

With a victor's attitude, Fordola's warriors docked the ship beside the outpost. The Ranger brigade on Star Sail One left the battleship one after another, looking for an entrance to the interior on the surface of the outpost.

The Star Sail 2 and 3 frigates, which had completed their cooperation tasks, were not in a hurry to leave. There has been no information from the two teams investigating the indigenous planets. The Eldar piloting the two frigates are also curious about the results of Star Sail One's investigation of the outpost.

However, as the ranger soldiers found the hatch and entered the outpost, time passed by, but they did not send back any news, and no Fordola ranger came out of the hatch.

It's as if these more than a hundred tribesmen disappeared out of thin air...

For a moment, the Eldar individuals who stayed on the three battleships were at a loss. They tried to send messages to the tribesmen who were deep inside the outpost, but did not receive any response.

Soon, ships No. 2 and No. 3 discovered that they seemed to be unable to contact the two Ranger groups lurking on the indigenous planet.

They no longer dare to enter the outpost rashly, but they cannot use warship weapons to attack the outpost, which may accidentally injure the tribesmen inside.

After careful consideration, Star Sail 2 and Ship 3 decided to leave Ship 1 here temporarily while they returned to the indigenous planet to gather manpower and prepare to organize a more conservative local exploration.

However, the plan had just been finalized, and when the two frigates turned their bows and were about to leave, suddenly, a slender humanoid creature crawled out of the outpost.

That was one of the rangers who disappeared before.

Then came the second, third, and Fodlan rangers one by one from the outpost, but their situation didn't seem right.

The Rangers did not appear from the same hatch, and their armors were torn and dirty. Their movements when they climbed out also appeared panicked and frightened, as if they were escaping from something terrible.

"They are in danger inside..."

"What's inside the outpost?"

"Don't waste time! We need to help the tribesmen evacuate as soon as possible!"

Under such an emergency situation, Starsail No. 2 and No. 3, who had just wanted to leave, immediately turned around. The three warships kept their weapons in a state that could be activated at any time. They were always vigilant and flew to the hatch exit closest to them. They would panic. Rangers picked up from this eerie outpost.

In this way, the small gift carefully prepared by the star bomber for Fordola was successfully delivered.
